The sum of all the measurements is just the average times the number.

\bar x = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n x_i

\sum_{i=1}^n x_i = n \bar x

So if the average of all 92 is 7 the sum of those is 92 \times 7

The average of the last two is 7.2 so their sum is 2 \times 7.2

That means the sum of the first 90 is 92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2

so the average of the first 90 is

 \dfrac{92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2}{90} = 6.99556 cm

The time is 2:46 PM. What is the measure of the angle that the minute hand swept through since 2:00 PM?
Sonbull [250]
The minute hand has swept through 46 minutes on the clock. You have to set up a ratio to solve this:

\frac{46\ minutes}{60\ minutes} = \frac{x\ degrees}{360\ degrees}

You can compare the 60 minutes on a clock to 360 degrees because 60 minutes on a clock is one whole rotation. So then, you cross multiply and simplify:

\frac{46\ minutes}{60\ minutes} = \frac{x\ degrees}{360\ degrees}\\\\46*360=x*60\\16560=60x\\276=x

Therefore, the minute hand has swept through an angle with a measure of 276 degrees.

Alla and balla together drink 750ML of water. Of alla drinks 50% more than balla how much does Alla drink
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

450 ml.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of water drank by Alla and y be the amount of water drank by Balla.

We have been given that Alla and Balla together drink 750 ML of water. We can represent this information as:

x+y=750...(1)  

We are also told that Alla drinks 50% more than Balla. We can represent this information as:

x=1.5y...(2)

From equation (1) we will get,

y=750-x  

Upon substituting this value in equation (2) we will get,

x=1.5(750-x)

Upon distributing 1.5 to right hand side of the equation we will get,

x=1125-1.5x

Upon adding 1.5x to both sides of equation we will get,

x+1.5x=1125-1.5x+1.5x

2.5x=1125

Let us divide both sides of our equation by 2.5.

\frac{2.5x}{2.5}=\frac{1125}{2.5}

x=450

Therefore, Alla drank 450 ml of water.
